I am solely bf my one month old but have woken up today with very bad D&V. Is it still ok to breastfeed him? I dont want to pass it on to him!! Also last night he wasn't interested in feeding very much he just had a couple of sucks so I expressed a bottle, how long can I keep this in the fridge????

Thanks

Yes, OK to still bf him. If you're going to pass it on, you'll do it whether or not you bf him, and if it's a virus then by bf him you ensure he gets our antibodies, which will help him fight it off.

just make sure you drink lots of fluids so you don't dehydrate.
